"Last month, the Vermont Senate passed legislation, approved earlier by the House, that would establish a single payer health care system in the state. The legislation would make Vermont the first state in the nation to, as Gov. Peter Shumlin (D) said, make health care “a right and not a privilege.”
The governor’s office just confirmed for ThinkProgress that Shumlin signed the legislation into law this morning, making the state the first in American history to pass legislation that will establish a single payer health care system to provide care to all citizens."
Vermont....the next California.
I am perfectly fine with what vermont did, it can be escaped and it's a 10th amendment states rights issue. I however am not fine with what the federal government did, it cannot be escaped.
What I dont understand is, will the Obama DOJ go after vermont for making a law similar to the already federal healthcare law? Because if they dont then they need to back off of Arizonas immigration law right?
